Anyone else really bothered by the blatant stalking?

This dude screws around on Renee Russo, doesn't talk to her for 3 years, and then very blatantly stalks the hell out of her and she just takes him back, just like that. He follows her home and then just walks into her house without asking/knocking. Twice!!! Times have really changed, because the movie portrays it like it's romantic or something. In reality she would have got a restraining order against him. With this and the stalking and raping in Revenge of the Nerds, I am starting to think the 80s were pretty *beep* up!

You know back in the old days stalking as you call it was how people met each other and ended up getting married. Ever listened to old timers talk about how they got together? The woman will talk about how she kept knocking the guy back and the guy kept asking her out until she said yes.

They then fall in love get married and stay together for the rest of their lives.

Now when you compare that to our times when most people are single, relationships don't last and marriages end in divorce, it "stalking" to use your term sounds like the way to go doesn't it?

Sometimes a movie or tv show plot is so stupid that only the stupid can understand it.

So following a woman home without her knowledge and then breaking and entering into a private residence is the same as asking a girl out again even after she turned you down.
You know you sound stupid right?

He didn't break and enter.

And you know that trying to apply retarded 2017 PC logic to a much more sane and happy time is really stupid, right?

Now that you have proven yourself incapable of civilized discussion you can go and play with the other PC spastics on my blocked list.
